On-Site Training and Conference Appearences
KYVL frequently presents at library association conferences and as part of professional development programs statewide. We have also done on-site training for librarians, staff and educators at individual schools and institutions. Our availability for all on-site training is determined on a case-by-case basis depending on KYVL staff schedules and budgetary constraints. If you are interested in having a KYVL staff member speak at your library or conference, please send your request via our Ask a Question form in the KYVL Help Center.
